16 weeks!!! What do you think?

Today I am 16 weeks. So do you think there is a bump?

Oh and for fun, Seedling is waving at you!

So on to notes!

Baby is the size of an Avocado! Yum, yum. I really want some avocado egg salad now.

Seedling is able to do a lot this week! For starters, my little wiggle worm (that's what the Dr. called seedling on Tuesday) is moving around a lot! And I may be able to start to feel the baby moving! I really hope I can feel my baby move. I know my baby has found my bladder and is jumping on it all the time.

I also think I have a big baby. My phone app says that the baby should weigh about 2.75 oz to 3.5 oz. My baby weighs 4 oz. I'm hoping that is a good thing. The heart beat was 162 on Tuesday..so nice and high.

Seedling can make facial expressions, and has finger nails! Seedling is also covered in tiny little hairs called lanugo for protection but should lose all of that before he/she is born.

Symptoms: I'm tired all the time.Plus I have a cold, so that makes me more tired.  Otherwise...I'm only throwing up 1 to 2 times a day, sometimes it's 3 to 4 times a week!!!!! Which is great. I have had no weight gain, but what ever.  I also have some acne :(

Projects: Nothing new. I don't want to to have something started and then lose the baby. I cannot jinx myself like that.

Gender prediction...So what do you think? Do you need food cravings? If so, not to much...just salt, meat, chocolate and fruit. Ohh strawberries and ice cream.

So, what do you think?

Last Thursday Thoughts

Happy Thursday!

Except, it's the last Thursday Thoughts. This is one of my favorite Link-ups and although I have been super busy these past two weeks, I'm going to miss it.  I know Jamie and Jamie said they don't mind if someone else starts it, so...maybe if I can find someone to co-host, I may continue it, since I love it.

Today's thoughts are just...well going to be a damper. I really have nothing new to talk about but I do wonder about life. Sometimes I feel that God doesn't give you more than you can handle. In fact, I know that God doesn't give you more than you can handle. But, sometimes, I feel he gives you a lot. And right now, I'm in that place where I'm wondering if I can handle any more stuff. To be honest, I know I won't be able to. So I'm wondering why God is giving me these challenges? As I think about it, I think it means I need to rework my prayer life with him. Make more time for him. Listen to him more.
At least, I that's what it mean.  IDK, I'm so confused. Which just means it time for two of my favorite bible verses:

Long week

It's been a long rainy week. I really wish it was Friday, but I really, REALLY, can't wait until Saturday! I know some people may know why, but for those who don't it's because Saturday will the 1 year anniversary of my marriage! Yes,I will have been married to the best man for me for 1 year!

I'm super excited. We will be having CAKE! On our little mini-moon we had top tier because it wasn't in a freezer burn proof box. So, my husband, being the amazing man that he is ordered a cake from the bakery where we got our wedding cake from. He got us our own top tier! I'm super excited to pick it up tomorrow and eat it on Saturday! So, some pictures of my wedding cake. 

My wonderful photographer

 Since it's Thursday- stop off at Jamie's blog! I love the link up she does.

Ad space, & My life catch-up

My oh Myo,

It's Thursday, one more day until the week-end, where I'm going home to visit my mommy! (Yay) Since I most likely am not going to write until Sunday, this post is going to a long one. (Sorry)

Anyways,  I have now got a paypal account and with that, have finally set up a full on passion fruit ad  shop where if you want to sponsor me you can. In fact, here's my plan, you sponsor me, I sponsor you and I let you do a guest post. How does that sound? I think it sounds great. Anyways, please check it out and if you just want to do a button swap please email me and let me know.


Now one to catch up for my life story.

Day 13: Public apology

Let's see, a while back I wrote a post about "princesses" and how those types of girls suck. I went on to describe what some of them might do and listed examples from one such "princess" in this world that I know.  If you are new here (or newer than last summer) I deleted the said post. But I would like to issue a public apology for getting my anger out on the internet instead of being an adult and talking it over. BUT, I am not issuing an apology for one thing- and that is what I said about you hurting my mom and me not taking it. The truth is, I feel you should make a PUBLIC apology in front of EVERYONE an let them know how you have been MISTREATING my mother who have been nothing but nice to you.

I apologize for me being me, and not calling my friends as much as I should. I really procrastinate.


Day 14: 10 things that make you happy!

Let's see:

Chocolate

My Husband

My family

Winston

Reading books

Bubble baths

Wine

Knitting

Dance

Cute animals

Day 15: Pictures of your day-

          Yeah-I forgot...sorry :( Also, I'm really bad at remembering to take pictures even when I do have a camera with me. 

Day 16: Something difficult in my life and how I'm working to over come it

    I guess, something difficult would be the cleaning of my place. I feel it is always a mess and that no matter how hard I work to clean, nothing ever gets done with it. I just don't know what to do about it. I try and it's clean for like 2 or 3 days, but then  I make dinner and am tired so my husband says go to bed, he will do the dishes, but I wake up and they are still there and dirty and then I work a really long shift and by the time I come home I want to go back to bed. UGH- so if you have any tips please, please, PLEASE let me know.

Ciao,

Linking up for Thursday Thoughts. 

More chapters of my life story...

It's Thursday!!!

It's been a wonderful week weather wise. The sun has been shinning, there is a nice cool breeze coming form the Mississippi  and then bouncing back off the buffs. It has been wonderful.  So I figured, why not continue with my life story. But first, some thoughts. I'm linking up with It's Okay Thursdays  and Thursday's Thoughts today.
  My fist thought is it's okay to not write a blog post every day. Sometimes, I just have nothing to say and why should I write a nonsense post? Going off of that, how often to you my readers, have time to read my blog. I know I can't read all the blogs I follow in one day, so I pick certain ones each day to catch up on. I figure it's okay that  I get busy.  Also, it's okay that I have been nothing but tired for the past week. I think it must be allergies, so it's okay that I have them (not really, but hey the link is about stuff that is okay)

And now on to the some more chapters of my life story

Day 7- What are you most afraid of?

 Snakes, Spiders, bugs, creepy crawly things, failure, and ending up alone

Day 8- Piece of advice?

 I have a lot, but I guess one thing that is to laugh often. Laughter is great medicine. I know that there will be times in your life where you can't or don't want to laugh, but just try. 

Day 9- A moment in your day

My moment that happens every day is me walking Winston.

Yummy yummy chicken pot pie

Good Morning,

<div align="center"><a href="http://tobystailsblog.blogspot.com" title="Toby's Tails"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkmlFExW5Z2nymRfQPX6LLZMcRmiT0HsSQ6Q7WlvYop2JtRs09yrBuPpyMusuQ-YnYTf_iWUWNbKnFdtQQHRUtr2-jrAm5sylC4Lx-ZhWolX9hyA7J7dyJmfKrFzzJjTleO-ljsXXNmvY4/w497-h373/2013-02-26" alt="Toby's Tails" style="border:none;" /></a></div>

I have a wonderful husband. All the time I was sick  just wanted a good old fashion Chicken Pot Pie. I thought I would share the yumminess with you.

Crust: (This is for two small pot pies- it covers the bottom and the top- not the side)

            1 Cup Flour

            1/3 to 1/2 cup milk

           3 Tbsp butter

           2 tsp sage

          Pinch of salt

1. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a bowl. Add milk and butter and kneed  until a ball forms. Put int he fridge

Inside(aka soup):

    1 can of cream of chicken soup

    1 cup of water

    1/4 cup milk

    peas

    cooked chicken cubed

    carrots

    beans

   corn

1. Mix everything together in  a sauce pan. Bring to a boil.

Put together:
              Roll out the crust- set some int he bottom of the pan. Pour the soup in. Cover with the rest of the crust. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

Enjoy!

(I think if I were to make this again, I would brush some butter on top of the crust to give it a flaky texture and taste. What do you think?)


 And for some of my It's Okay's for the week:

...to be super excited for the 48 degree weather we had yesterday....

...to have crazy food cravings and NOT be pregnant but PMSing...

...to love the idea of paperwork just to be able to listen to music...

...to be super excited that the peppers I planted have sprouted.. YAY!...

and

...to want to wear sun dresses and have the body to wear sun dresses...

Ciao,

Random 5!

Hi all,

 My name is Dani. Yesterday Jamie asked me if I wanted to be a co-host and I just couldn't turn it down. I'm hoping that the button below works for everyone.

Today, my thoughts are this...

                    I was  tagged by Kristen from Making each Minute count. So, why not jump right on in.

1.  My lungs suck. 

I've always had breathing problems since I could remember. Between the stuffed nose, allergies, and the asthma, I can clearly say I have sucky lungs. 

2. I like Grey's Anatomy. 

It's one of my favorite TV shows. 

3. I can play my nose. 

My mom taught me.I can play certain songs on my nose and it really sounds like music. Of course Jeff thinks it's weird and all. But that's okay. 

4. I'm a geek
My favorite classes of all time are linguistics and psychology. I love language. I love different cultures and I love learning about the brain. (I know a geek)

5.  I'm a midget. 
 I don't remember if I talked about this on here yet but I'm under 5 feet so that legally makes me a midget. I'm not a dwarf  because I don't have the genetic code to be a dwarf and I'm over 4 feet.

I forgot to tag people: (oooppps)

Today I'm tagging:
Ashlyn at On Cloud 9
Deanna at The Peony Princess
Heather at Every Girl like Me
Jess at Little Miss Undomestic
and
 Jazmine at Sassy Burnette

 With the weather being cold, snowy and rainy, I was thinking of investing in some rain boots.  I want them to be bright with a pop of color maybe like this...

Anyways, what do you all think?

Ciao,
